Presidential candidates in the United States must receive a majority vote in the Electoral College (270 votes) to win the election. If none of the candidates running receive this majority, the House of Representatives elects the President from the top three candidates who received the majority of votes.

∙ 14y agoIf no candidate receives the necessary votes in the Electoral College, the election goes to the House of Representatives. In the House, each state gets one vote. So the representatives of the state gather and vote within their delegation and then vote as one on the House floor. The person who receives a majority (26) is elected President. There are some problems with voting in the House. The small states (population wise) have the same influence as the larger states. If a majority of representatives from a state cannot agree on a candidate, that state loses its vote. If some members of the House favor a strong third-party candidate, it could make it difficult for any candidate to get the needed 26 votes.
